    I started feeling sickly and diagnosed with anemia when I was 15 (11 yrs ago). Got really sickly for 2-3 years before celiac diagnosed, had D, headaches, anemia of course, cramps, pain, sweating and shaking when going to the bathroom, went to the bathroom 9-12 times a day. I thought it was just how I was going to be...though it never seemed to matter what...

    Be glad you don't remember I remember the colonoscopy and endoscopy..they kept giving me the shots of pain relievers...but I felt it all and remember the whole thing! At least I know I have Celiacs...so it was worth it. Hope you get some answers!

    I go in for the kiss and he turns...I've had gluten!! Kills the moment when someone has to brush teeth and swish...but at least I won't feel like crap!!

    Thank you for the advice...yeah I was "diagnosed" with GERD years ago before Celiac finally was found as the real culprit...I have never taken probiotics, but I will have to look into it!! Thanks again.

    Thanks so much! I just like to make sure I am not the only one dealing with these stupid "side effects". I will try to keep away from dairy and look into the digestive enzymes. Thanks!!

    I was diagnosed Nov of 2009 and have been on a gluten-free diet ever since. I have felt SO much better then I have in years. Well, at first I lost weight, I think because I didn't know what I could eat, so I ate a lot healthier. Now I have discovered more foods, and of course have gained weight right back. I have been glutened here and there, but have done...

    I had the opposite "problem", I missed a period a few months after going on the gluten-free diet. I am on the pill and have never in my life missed a period. In fact, mine are always heavier then I think they should be . But I think through your body healing...it also throws things out of whack. My period eventually came back. Our bodies all cope with things...

    Also I just discovered we can have a lot of different flavored Doritos!! They label wheat on their packaging. As far as junk food...it's cheaper and I love them Just to add to the list!

    Hey and welcome! I will start by saying, this website is amazing and soooo helpful! I was in the same boat November 9th, 2009....so extremely happy, there's IS something wrong with me!! The pain and suffering is for a real reason, it's not just the way I am! But, then like you, I almost immediately got very upset and actually cried the first few times I went...

    Thank you so much! I have never heard of a paleo diet, but I will look into it and see what I can some up with! The main thing will be getting on him to exercise and lose weight....I guess that means I will have to do the same! I will stay away from white rice for now...and tell him no more carbs! Smaller meals portions as well I am sure. Thanks a lot! Hopefully...

    Hey everyone! I am on here because I have Celiacs, but no other health issues (as far I know). But, I also know some people on here do have other issues, and hopefully someone can give me advice!! My boyfriend is 30 and just found out he has high cholesterol and is pre diabetic. Now, I know how great the gluten free is for me of course...would this be a good...

    Hey and welcome to the board!! This place has helped me more then anyone can imagine. As far as my GI told me, I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy, and the endoscopy biopsies came back positive for Celiacs Disease. I asked her if that was absolutely, 100% positive and she said yes. I was never told to "try" a gluten free diet....but that I HAD to be on a gluten...

    AND I forgot to mention....I went to Margaritaville...they couldn't tell me ANYTHING was gluten free. Basically I could have gotten lettuce with nothing on it. None of the meats are ok....just FYI!

    Alright...here we go... I researched as much as I could online, found some good info, but until you get to Las Vegas, you don't really know just how far away things are! I found all kinds of great options before I left, just to find out they were on the other end of the strip or REALLY expensive. So, here's my experience, maybe it will help someone out...
  16. glutenfreeinminnesota
    thank you I will definitely try it!

    I was told to avoid dairy when starting out on the gluten free diet. Your body needs to adjust to the changes. I waited a few months after starting my new diet, and can now have it with no problems. BUT, some people find out they are intolerant to dairy also. I take Osteo-Bi Flex every day, my joints started to feel better after about week. I know that's...

    I checked it out, thanks!! I am happy to know the buffet at planet hollywood is a possible option, maybe there are more out there, too? Glad to know I have a few options, I will post if I find anything else out there! Not going til June, so I have some time to research more. Thank you!

    I am going to Las Vegas soon. I am staying at the Palazzo and need to know where to eat?? I have google searched gluten free restaurants in Las Vegas, but it's hard to tell what's actually close to my hotel. Anyone know the area pretty well? We won't have transportation and I really want to be able to walk there. Any ideas? Thanks!

    I love pork and anything made from a pig. When I eat it I notice some pains and such after eating. I asked my nutritionist and she tells me that pork is just a little harder to digest then other meats. Maybe that's why? I just won't eat pork for days in a row, or eat too much at one time.
  21. glutenfreeinminnesota
    I will be honest, at first it REALLY sucks...and now it just kind of sucks...sometimes. My boyfriend is a gluten eater and LOVES Papa Murphys Pizza (also used to be my favorite). So, when he brings that home, the house smells like it for days. I am never tempted to eat it of course, but it makes me sad sometimes. Then I usually go and make my own pizza the...

    Fogo de Chao is AMAZING and I think almost the whole menu in gluten-free. Kinda pricey though. IF you're driving, and could make it to any of these places, they are good too; PF Changs, BD's Mongolian Grill...Chipotle is there, too. Pretty much every place around here is willing to help me out with needs Just let them know!

    I was diagnosed back in Nov 09 through biopsy. They said "see a nutritionist" and sent me on my way. I know how that can feel...and I really didn't feel like I had the time..or money to go have someone tell me what I can't eat anymore. I was so angry that this was what I had, I used to eat anything and everything. I loved food. Always maintained my weight...

    I used to eat anything and everything, not a picky bone in my body. I loved trying new beers and restaurants. I always felt like crap no matter what I ate, so I thought that's just the way I was. I never even paid attention to labels. Now, with my new forced diet, I have focused all my time on the labels and whats in EVERYTHING. It's kind of fun researching...

    I have been on a gluten free diet since November 2009. I have been on birth control for ten years, and have NEVER missed a period. I have always started on the same day, and ended on the same day. This Monday came and went and here I am Friday, still nothing!! I took a pregnancy test and it was negative...Does this gluten free diet cause missed periods ever...
